Attorney General Loretta Lynch to follow FBI guidance in Hillary Clinton email investigation
ATTORNEY GENERAL LORETTA LYNCH

The NY Times reported, “Attorney General Loretta E. Lynch plans to announce on Friday that she will accept whatever recommendation career prosecutors and the F.B.I. director make about whether to bring charges related to Hillary Clinton’s personal email server, a Justice Department official said. Her decision removes the possibility that a political appointee will overrule investigators in the case.
.
“The Justice Department had been moving toward such an arrangement for months — officials said in April that it was being considered — but a private meeting between Ms. Lynch and former President Bill Clinton this week set off a political furor and made the decision all but inevitable.” http://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/02/us/politics/loretta-lynch-hillary-clinton-email-server.html
.
In spite of the fact that it has been variously reported that between 50 and 147 FBI agents have been assigned to the Clinton investigation, Hillary Clinton described it as a “security inquiry,” and many of her hardcore supporters have denied that there’s even an FBI investigation into Clinton at all.. But FBI Director James Comey recently told a roundtable of reporters, “It’s in our name. I’m not familiar with the term ‘security inquiry.’ We’re conducting an investigation.”

BILL CLINTON CASUALLY ENGAGED
IN A BLATANT ACT OF ELECTION FRAUD
Many Americans don’t understand the seriousness of this case. They think that it’s simply another witch hunt on Hillary Clinton that’s being blown out of proportion by conservative zealots and/or Bernie Sanders cultists over a relatively minor issue. But many (though not all) Hillary Clinton supporters have also become zealots much like those of Donald Trump. They tend to fall into two categories - establishment Democrats who crave the opportunity to jump onboard the Clinton gravy train, and low-information people who vote blindly based on name recognition alone, or vote their genitals over their intellect. Instead of thinking like traditional progressives and simply following truth wherever it leads, they've embraced a conservative mindset that tries to bend truth to fit their delusions of reality. So these people are turning a blind eye to anything that either Bill or Hillary does, even if it’s a direct assault on American democracy, and that’s exactly what this investigation is about - an attempt to save our democracy, in spite of such people. Hillary is scheduled to meet with the FBI on July 2nd, signaling that this case is coming to a climax.
.
Nevertheless, many Hillary cultists are asking, “What about Colon Powell?  He did the same thing. Why aren’t they going after him? Why are they making such it a big deal with Hillary?” The answer to that is simple - it’s not true.  Yes, Colon Powell did use his own email address in a normal account, but Hillary Clinton HIRED an IT EXPERT to build a private email SERVER in her home, and then she kept him on her personal payroll to maintain it - and that was while he was also working for the State Department, and without the State Department’s knowledge that he was also moonlighting for Hillary.  The IT expert’s name is Bryan Pagliano, and he recently invoked the 5th amendment over 125 times during a recent 2 hour deposition. What was he worried about being incriminated of? https://www.yahoo.com/news/m/1cbce01a-2ead-3697-bab1-7a350f062ea0/undefined
.
So the question is, why would Hillary Clinton go through all of the trouble and expense of hiring  her own IT expert to build a private email server in her home instead of using the State Department’s computer that was secure, and mandated, for her use?  She didn’t use it even once during her entire tenure as Secretary of State.  The Atlantic speculates:
.
“A home server allows someone complete control over their digital correspondence. Emails do not live on a server in a datacenter that companies may be sifting through for ad targeting—they live on a hard drive in your living room. In the Clintons’ case, they may have wanted to be in control of the encryption of their correspondence, ensuring that no third parties—whether commercial, hacker, or government—were able to snoop on them.”

.
So according to that rationale, in spite of the fact that Hillary Clinton was a public servant, and supposedly working for us, she didn’t want our government snooping on her - and I think there’s a good reason why:
.
THE CLINTON FOUNDATION

“The Swiss bank UBS is one of the biggest, most powerful financial institutions in the world. As secretary of state, Hillary Clinton intervened to help it out with the IRS. And after that, the Swiss bank paid Bill Clinton $1.5 million for speaking gigs. The Wall Street Journal reported all that and more Thursday in an article that highlights huge conflicts of interest that the Clintons have created in the recent past.
.
“Then reporters James V. Grimaldi and Rebecca Ballhaus lay out how UBS helped the Clintons. “Total donations by UBS to the Clinton Foundation grew from less than $60,000 through 2008 to a cumulative total of about $600,000 by the end of 2014, according to the foundation and the bank,” they report. ‘The bank also joined the Clinton Foundation to launch entrepreneurship and inner-city loan programs, through which it lent $32 million. And it paid former president Bill Clinton $1.5 million to participate in a series of question-and-answer sessions with UBS Wealth Management Chief Executive Bob McCann, making UBS his biggest single corporate source of speech income disclosed since he left the White House.”’

Corruption Conviction of Clinton Crony Foreshadows Hillary Legal Struggles

The Observer article goes on to say,

“Hillary Clinton superdelegate and longtime Democratic Congressman Chaka Fattah was convicted of 22 counts of corruption charges. After serving 11 terms in Congress, Fattah is now out on bail after an indictment was filed in July 2015 against him and four associates. Despite the conviction, Fattah is set to serve the remainder of his term in Congress until January 2017. He faces sentencing in October, and could potentially serve the rest of his life in prison.
.
“Fattah formally endorsed Hillary Clinton for president in February, shortly before losing his primary bid for re-election in April. He has been a Clinton loyalist for decades, standing by the Clintons amid the Monica Lewinsky scandal in the 1990s, and even helping Bill Clinton coordinate DNC fundraising trips to Philadelphia shortly after he admitted to perjury. “He can be a public servant without being perfect,” Fattah told Philly.com in 1998.”
.
Another one of Clinton's inner circle, Former New York State Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver, was also convicted of corruption in November 2015.  He was closely connected to Hillary Clinton while she served as senator of New York.
.
The Observer goes on to report that "Hillary Clinton’s 2008 campaign chair, Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe, is currently under investigation by the FBI and Department of Justice over questionable contributions to his 2013 campaign. According to a recent CNN report, the investigation—which has been going on for at least a year—calls into question Mr. McAuliffe’s service as a board member to the Clinton Global Initiative, a subsidiary of the Clinton Foundation. A $120,000 donation from a Chinese businessman, Wang Wenliang, made through U.S.-based businesses, raised red flags with investigators—along with several other donations, like the $2 million he gave the Clinton Foundation."http://observer.com/2016/05/corruption-is-catching-up-to-the-clintons-and-their-associates/

So the mere mishandling of classified email, which is a very serious matter in itself, is not the crux of this investigation, it merely serves as a roadmap that seems to lead to a pattern of corruption, a breach of faith, and one of the most egregious abuses of power of any high-level official in the history of this nation.

THE CLINTONS HAVE A LONG HISTORY CORRUPTION AND SKIRTING THE LAW
.
The Mena Connection: Bush, Clinton, and CIA drug smuggling
.
Bill Clinton colluded with the Reagan administration to transport drugs into Mena, Arkansas when he was governor of Arkansas to flood the Black community with crack cocaine, and then as president he signed the most draconian crime bill in the history of the United States leading to the mass incarceration of the Black victims of his crime, creating the prison industrial complex. Thereafter, the prison industrial complex became one of Hillary Clinton's biggest political contributors.
.
The people must demand that Hillary withdraw.  These two can not be allowed back into the White House.  The nation is still suffering from the last time we made that mistake.
